Challenges That Change Us
106 {Jess Flynn} Chronic illness from the eyes of a 14 year old
24 Mar 2024
Firstly I want to thank everyone for their patience when we were unable to release an episode last week. It’s been a big few weeks in the Flynn household and sometimes you just have to admit you can’t do everything.If you were in our Facebook group you would have seen that my daughter Jess has been quite sick and I just didn’t have capacity.But I was talking to Jess and I said I didn’t think I’d be able to release an episode this week as well and with her blessing we came up with a plan. Why not interview her and share her story.She is my biggest inspiration when things get tough and one of the most inspirational and resilient people I know and I am so excited to have her join me on the podcast.In this episode Jess shares: - Her back story and what’s been happening for the last 12 years for her with a Chronic Illness- What it's like for her when she has a relapse- Her greatest challenge with this disease- What it would look like if she went to school for 45 minutes while relapsing- What she's looking forward to for her future- Her mantras or words she tells herself- Her greatest fear at the moment- What she would do differently as a parentKey Quotes “I always find that I talk a lot more when I'm sick cause it helps the pain.” “Next month looks completely different, because usually it does.” “Find something to focus on. When you find that thing to focus on it helps with the pain.”You can get involved with the podcast online To try out our resilience course: https://www.challengesthatchangeus.com/surviving-2-thriving-course1On facebook in our community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/challengesthatchangeusOr on Instagram: @challengesthatchangeusIf you want to contact the podcast, email us here: [email protected] check out our website: www.Challengesthatchangeus.com If you want to find out more about what Ali does, check out her business via the website:http://www.trialtitudeperformance.com.au For her other business you can find it through the websites:www.altitudefitnessarmidale.com.au@trialtitudeperformance Hosted on Acast.
